Located in Seal Cove, Maine, at the Long Pond entrance to Acadia National Park. The property is on a dead-end town road on the 'quiet side' of Mount Desert Island, near Pretty Marsh. It sits on the edge of a field overlooking Western Mountain. Two ponds are within walking distance. A short drive on a dirt road brings you either to the ocean or the largest lake in Acadia National Park. Nearby convenience stores are located in Bernard and Somesville; grocery and other shopping can be found in Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor. The islands, mountains, oceanfront, ponds, trails, motor roads, and carriage roads of Acadia National Park are the biggest attraction in the area. Some of that beauty is right out the door of this guest apartment. The rest is close by. To locate the property on Google Maps search: 39 Hodgdon Rd Mt Desert, ME 04660.

Further Details for the apartment in Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island, Maine, USA

This residence is gay friendly. Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island merchants do not particularly cater to gay and lesbian tourists. However, it does seem that there is a large lesbian resident population and---surprise---gay men live here too. There are some gay-owned businesses and welcoming congregations on the island. I offer my local knowledge to help gay visitors find their way.

Local knowledge of national park and environs. I will greet you upon arrival and give you an orientation to the apartment and the area. As a former Acadia National Park Ranger, I will provide first-hand information about visiting Mount Desert Island and other area attractions. I will even tell you about my favorite walks: one for a foggy morning, another for that crystal-clear, blue-sky afternoon.

Guest Book 'Thank you Bruce for keeping such a comfortable, simple, clean home; making it possible for us to come and enjoy such a special place.' -- Nancy Zabel (August 2007) 'We had a great time. . . . This place really is a little piece of paradise. Your home is so warm and comfortable. Thank you for sharing it all with us. We are from Exeter, NH, and hope to get back again & again. -- Lili Spinosa (August 18, 2007)
